Switch 2 Won’t Be as Strong as Deck

Nintendo Switch 2 performance boost to fall short of Valve’s Steam Deck (tweaktown.com)

According to the YouTuber, in handheld mode, the Switch 2 will run at 5 watts and feature a fanless cooling solution, and in docked mode, it will be bumped up to a range of 15 to 30 watts, depending on the load of the game. To compensate for this bump in wattage, Nintendo will introduce a cooling solution. As for raw performance, the rumored chip inside the Nintendo Switch 2 is designed with power efficiency in mind, and when compared to the Steam Deck, Moore’s Law is Dead says its average FPS will be slightly lower.

The YouTube expects a game that runs at 90 FPS on the Steam Deck to run at 60FPS on the Switch 2. If a game runs at 60FPS on the Steam Deck, the YouTuber expects the Switch 2 to run at around 40FPS with VRR being used. Additionally, there will be the inclusion of NVIDIA upscaling technology such as DLSS tanks to the NVIDIA GPU. There is also the possibility of raytracing

Steam Deck Modding App Gets Access to its First Game

Stardew Valley players on Steam Deck can test out the new Nexus Mods app | PC Gamer

“We’re delighted to announce the alpha release of the Nexus Mods app—our next-generation mod manager,” senior community manager Pickysaurus announced. “This is a very early build with limited features and only supports Stardew Valley (more games are coming later), but it’s the perfect time for pioneers like you to help shape its future.”

Not only that, but the alpha version of the app is available for both Windows and Linux, which means Stardew players can test it on Steam Deck. Much as I’m digging the ‘Dew so far, I’ve been thinking about trying out a few mods, like one that makes time move a bit slower in the mines. Now I don’t have to Google a bunch of guides on how to get mods working on Steam Deck, I can just try the new app. See, this is why I didn’t want to play it in the first place. Now I’m gonna be sucked down a rabbit hole of the best Stardew Valley mods.

The app has been in the works for a while, and will eventually succeed the site’s current mod manager, Vortex, which has been around since 2018. The new app won’t 100% replace Vortex, but “eventually the app will become the primary mod manager and Vortex will no longer be updated officially,” Pickysaurus said in response to a user comment, noting that “We’re a long way from that.”

As for what you can do with the Nexus Mods app in the alpha:

Install mods for Stardew Valley on Steam and GOG (Xbox Game Pass support is coming later).

Log in to your Nexus Mods account and download mods directly from the website.

Cleanly enable and disable mods in your loadout.

Easily roll your game to a non-modded state by un-managing the game or uninstalling the app.

Get diagnostic information about common issues in your load order, including: missing dependencies, SMAPI or game version issues, potentially dangerous mod installed (XNB edits)

In-app editing of config files (e.g. config.json)
